Hmm, the BIOS on my laptop uses those values when the C states are disabled 
(according to the BIOS text).  That is, my BIOS lets me turn C2 and C3 on and 
off.  When turned on, it uses the values 1 and 85 for the latency, and when 
off it uses 100 and 1000.  Note that the kernel never uses C3 on this machine 
by the way with these latencies:

hw.acpi.cpu.cx_supported: C1/1 C2/1 C3/85
